Right but civil statutes of limitations run different than the 2/7/15/30 limitations that most criminal offenses hold. He will lose money. Lots and lots of it. He probably won't spend time in jail, which is what should happen. He did lots of good things, but thats like saying Hitler did good things because he dredged the Rhine river.

He's a Liar. He's a cheat. I expect his sponsors and race directors want, and should get their money back. Those he demonized should get some restitution. It appears that there was/is a lot of doping in cycling. That being said, the tour de France means less to me than NHL or pro soccer. I certainly don't want to support this clown in prison. Sue him, fine him, and shame him.
Scumbag, not murderer.

Neither is having a made up girlfriend to hide the fact that your gay. Thats the real issue.

careful, he might sue you for that. wait no he won't. sorry guys i keep forgetting we are mocking a 21 year old kid here and not human piece of shit lance armstrong. if he is in the closet, its only because we put him there. we created a society that demands men be heterosexual or face extreme ridicule and humiliation at the hands of their peers, and i don't think that is te'o's fault. its the fault of all the ignorant people out there who most likely have deeply-rooted insecurities in their own sexualities and project it onto others

i'm guessing sleeping and storing his clothing

Strange. Yesterday you had him hiding in his closet, worried about the ignorant people subjecting him to extreme ridicule and humiliation. Over something that's only a rumor. Glad you came around to my side.

yeah, i'm not saying this is the case neither did i say he WAS gay or whatever, moreso just laying the framework for some possible debate on the subject. he especially though, being an athlete, would be subject to the homophobia that is rampant in american sports. have you read john amaechi's book? the dude went through some pretty unfair shit. you have to admit that american sports are hypermasculated (is that even a word?)

word chase...i'm with you on that. just making an observation mostly, for those who are starting to speculate and potentially seeing that as something that is funny and/or worth mocking further

i guess its a lot easier to take cheap shots at people

Nobody gives a shit about Cycling. Most people have figured he juiced years ago, which is why its not that big of a surprise. They both lied to save face. But you defend one, and out the other? Right on....Its my opinion he continued to lie after finding out the truth to get sympathy votes in the Heisman race.
